Chapter 68 Snake Swallows Elephant
Chapter 68 Snake Swallows Elephant
Lunar June 11th, Foshan
Outside the Golden Building, the luxurious carriage gradually stopped, and a slender figure walked down with the support of Yu Yang.
After looking at the magnificent door and the golden sign, the woman curled her lips.
“Is this the Foshan Golden Tower that is said to be comparable to Chentang Liushang?
It is quite tall, but the decoration is really tacky.
Master Yu, what do you think? "
Li had been accustomed to a life of luxury since childhood and had seen many luxurious decorations. In her opinion, the magnificent five-story building in front of her was just average at best.
"pretty good."
When Yu Yang heard Li's question, he still looked as if he didn't want anyone to approach him. After giving a perfunctory reply, he stopped talking like a mute.
Li was not angry. She looked at Yu Yang with resentment and then walked into the brothel with her graceful waist.
Hearing the "clacking" sound of the woman's leather sandals hitting the wooden board, the accountant and the servant hurriedly put down their work, looked at the newcomer, and stepped forward to greet her.
"I want to meet your boss. If he asks me why I'm here, just say that the Li family wants to discuss a big business with him."
The accountant looked at Li, who was wearing fine Suzhou embroidery clothes and a jeweled belt around her waist, and then looked at the set of expensive jade jewelry on the woman, and couldn't help but smack his lips.
"Please sit here for a moment. I will go and ask the host for instructions."
The accountant led Li to a private room nearby to rest, while he asked the servant in blue to go find Qin Huai.
Yu Yang followed the woman, looking around the brightly lit lobby that was decorated with gold and gilded decorations. He immediately became very interested in Qin Huai's identity.
Being able to use props to elevate his status so high, this guy’s real background must be complicated!
His surname is Qin, right?
While Yu Yang was making wild guesses, Qin Huai had received a notification from the servant and was preparing to come down from the roof.
After the competition last night, Qin Huai kept thinking on the way back to Jinlou about how to make full use of this negotiation to achieve his goal.
Now seeing that Li came here alone and Blank did not follow, Qin Huai quietly came up with a plan in his mind. He had it!
Qin Huai came to the first floor and looked at Li and Yu Yang. He clasped his fists and said loudly,
"I didn't know you were coming. I'm sorry I didn't come to greet you. I'm sorry I neglected you. I hope you won't mind."
"It's okay, it just took a while. Mr. Qin looks very young."
When Li saw Qin Huai's beautiful young body, her eyes lit up, her throat sank, and she said softly,
"Boss Qin, shall we talk here?"
"I was negligent. Please follow me."
Without further ado, Qin Huai took the two of them upstairs, intending to go to another place to talk in detail.
Looking at the broad shoulders in front of him and the warmth that seemed to penetrate his body, Li curled the corners of his mouth and leaned forward.
Qin Huai listened to the woman's interrupted footsteps and the sound of the wind rushing forward behind him, then he took a big step and went up to the third floor.
Turning around and looking at the woman being held by Yu Yang, Qin Huai pretended to be concerned and said,
"The weather is hot and the stairs are slippery, Miss Li, please be careful.
If you accidentally fall and injure your body, then my Jinlou will be guilty of a great sin. "
"It's okay, I just haven't been active for a long time and my body is a little weak."
Seeing that his thoughts were discovered, Li was not embarrassed. He broke away from Yu Yang's hand and continued to walk up the stairs.
In the meeting room, Li sat down. Seeing Qin Huai sitting upright, he put away the frivolous look on his face. A hint of greed appeared in his eyes. He said straight to the point,
“I heard a few days ago that Brother Qin opened a Jinlou restaurant, and I’ve always wanted to come and take a look, but unfortunately I’ve been busy with business these days and haven’t had the chance to come and visit.
It happened that I was talking about the miraculous medicine for fever with the head of my family yesterday, and he became interested, so he asked me to come and take a look today.
Brother Qin, I won't hide it from you. I came here to give you money this time!" "Oh? Madam Li is really a heroine and efficient. I wonder if you have any advice for me? I'm all ears."
When Li heard Qin Huai's address, she frowned, but she didn't care much and continued
“The main thing is that my sister noticed that your miraculous medicine seems to be sold only in the southern region, and the scale is not large.
Although the medicine is effective, it is just a small thing in the eyes of those big shots.
This time we came here just to get you to join us. Then you can take the secret medicine formula and start a business with us. Isn't that better than doing business with these poor warriors?
Once we get the secret recipe, we will be able to immediately expand our scale, increase production, and then the money will roll in.
After we get rich, we will get 70% and 30% of the profits. We contribute the majority of money and effort, and you don't have to do anything.
Just rest on your laurels and enjoy wealth and glory.
Do you think there is a more profitable business in the world than this? "
"Maybe you misunderstood something. Where do I get any secret medicine formula?
I am just a broker who helps others sell goods, and the channels for secret medicines were given to me by others.
Where did you hear this news? Did you find the wrong person? "
Qin Huai sneered in his heart when he heard what Li was planning.
These foreigners and warlords have big appetites. They want to take over my secret medicine business. They are really ambitious.
Li's beautiful phoenix eyes slightly raised, revealing a hint of cunning, and her red lips moved slightly.
"Brother Qin, you don't really think we know nothing.
Although I don’t know which merchant you found in Kowloon to cooperate with, we have already figured out where this secret medicine is produced, we just don’t know the exact location.”
Qin Huai crossed his arms, looked at the woman, thought for a while, and made a request.
"I really don't have the secret recipe, but I can give the goods to you to sell. The profit is 70% to 30%, 70% for me and 30% for you. If it works, it's fine. If not, forget it. I will definitely not lose money if I maintain the status quo!"
Madam Li frowned and looked at Qin Huai who was not moved by her persuasion. She was a little angry.
“Brother Qin, I didn’t expect that you have such a big appetite despite your young age.
Our Li family can help you sell this medicine to any corner of the world.
With such a huge market and huge profits, you only give us 30%?"
Qin Huai smiled calmly and said, "Madam, even without you, my medicine will still be purchased by buyers from all over the world.
Your help is just icing on the cake for us.”
Upon hearing this, Madam Li couldn't help but curse Qin Huai for being cunning.
What a stubborn little brat, he holds on to his purse like a miser.
At that moment, she took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart, and said: "Since you don't have the secret medicine formula, then we will buy it from you and split the profit 50-50. I guarantee that you will earn more than you do now. This is okay, right?
But I have one condition, that is, the secret medicine must be provided to me first!"
Qin Huai saw that the woman had fallen into a trap, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
“Well, that’s easy to say, but I have to discuss it with the seller in Kowloon.
How about this, Madam Li, when the vessel control in Victoria Harbour ends, I will go to Kowloon to help you persuade the seller there, is that okay with you?"
"Don't wait any longer. Let's go tomorrow. I'll arrange a boat to take you there. I don't think any force in Kowloon would dare to deny our Li family face."
Mrs. Li was a little anxious, and in just a few words she helped Qin Huai solve his current problem of having no boat available.
Qin Huai looked at the woman and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
What a great man!
